Kim Soo Hyun Cleared After AI Evidence Exposed

A major controversy erupted in South Korea after the late actress Kim Sae-ron’s family accused actor Kim Soo-hyun of having a sexual relationship with her while she was a minor, filing criminal charges for violating the Child Welfare Act and making false accusations. The family's attorney presented an audio recording allegedly describing the underage relationship and inappropriate behavior by Kim Soo-hyun. However, subsequent investigations found that the audio evidence was manipulated using AI voice technology, and the whistleblower admitted to fabricating the recording. Kim Soo-hyun and his agency strongly denied all allegations, describing them as false and defamatory, and have filed counter-lawsuits against the family and media figures spreading the claims. The case has generated intense public scrutiny and debate over unverified accusations in high-profile scandals. Legal proceedings and public discussion continue as the veracity of evidence is questioned.
